    Ask Us Anything Sessions

    If you are considering running for an SEA leadership position and would like to learn more, we will host Ask Us Anything sessions with current SEA officers. These informal office hours are an opportunity to ask questions about service, time commitment, current or ongoing projects, and hear directly about the experience of serving. For those who can’t attend one of these sessions, we will share-out alternative engagement opportunities (e.g., a padlet to ask anonymous questions and see answers to questions that have already been addressed). 

    Sessions:

    • Wednesday, July 8 at 6 pm - President and Events Officer hosting

    • Tuesday, July 14 at 3 pm - President and Finance Officer hosting

    • Friday, July 24 at 12 pm - President and Finance Officer hosting

    • Tuesday, August 4 at 12:30 pm - President and Communications Officer hosting

    Election Timeline:

    • July 15: Nominations open and election process announced
    • July and August: Ask Us Anything sessions with current officers
    • August 28: Nominations close
    • September 7 - 18: Election voting period
    • October 1: New Board Members Announced
    • December 4: New Board Member Handoff at Annual Business Meeting

    We hope members from across the Washington evaluation community will consider serving or nominating someone who would help strengthen SEA’s work. Feel free to reach out to us at info@evalseattle.org.

          Dear Community,

          We are back and offering a second round of the WERA and SEA collaboration on Social Justice Book Club!

          Together, we are building a space to step back from our day-to-day work and dive into the "why" behind the systems we serve. Join us for:

          • Community: Connect across the fields of education, evaluation, research, and the communities we reach.

          • Curiosity: Go beyond the surface with deep reading and critical dialogue that fuels new ways of thinking.
          • Context: Unpack the social, cultural, and political forces shaping our professional and personal lives.

          How this Book Club Works

          • Each book club registration lasts for one quarter and we will choose a new book each quarter (every three months).
          • Register for each quarterly series to join the discussion. This registration is for the Summer book club.
          • Buy or borrow a copy in any format (print, e-book, or audio). We encourage supporting your local library or independently owned bookstore and to donate your books to public libraries, non-profit or educational institutions when you have completed it. If you need assistance acquiring the text, SEA and WERA may be able to help so please reach out via email.
          • During the quarter, sections of the book will be discussed based upon 3-5 set reflection questions with additional questions asked by the designated facilitator for the meeting. We will rotate facilitators among the group for each meeting.

          Reading for Summer Quarter

          Red Paint by Sasha LaPointe. Examining what it means to be vulnerable in love and in art, LaPointe offers up an unblinking reckoning with personal traumas amplified by the collective historical traumas of colonialism and genocide that continue to haunt native peoples. Red Paint is an intersectional autobiography of lineage, resilience, and, above all, the ability to heal. We will discuss LaPointe's journey in discovering identity, belonging, and purpose, drawing strength from her Coast Salish heritage and the PNW punk community.

          Meeting Schedule for Summer quarter

          • Wednesday, August 5 from 5-6
          • Wednesday, August 26 from 5-6

          The recurring Zoom link for virtual sessions will be in the registration confirmation email.

          Registration

          • SEA and WERA Members: FREE
          • Non-Members: $10 per quarterly series

          Registration and membership fees directly fund community events organized by SEA’s 100% volunteer-led leadership.

          Please register by: July 31st

          We look forward to further building community with you!
